Malalai App

In this way, the other users of the app always have an updated map that shows safe and unsafe safe areas to move around. The app also allows security and emergency contacts to be registered, which can follow the user's journey through GPS or can be contacted through the app or through a ring that can be obtained via purchase on the website. and that automatically sends alert messages.
